Affirmations and positive thinking can tap the power of your subconscious mind and propel you toward your goals.
Here’s how to write your own affirmations:
Step One:
Ask yourself: What about your life would you most like to change? Make a quick, brief list of your most significant life challenges.
Step Two:
Break down these challenges into specific areas that you can work on. The more specific the affirmation statement the more effective it will be.
So, “I owe a lot of money” becomes “I owe money to credit card companies.”
Step Three:
For each specific challenge from Step Two, brainstorm all of the possible solutions. Visualize the best possible outcome of your problem.
Step Four:
State this positive outcome in a clear, direct sentence. Again, try to focus on specifics. Write your affirmation in the present tense and in a positive way.
Example: “I will pay off my credit card debt” becomes “I can pay off my credit card debt.” (Note the present tense construction.)
If you find objections surfacing in the form of negative self-talk, restate the objection in the form of affirmations and positive thinking.
Example: Affirmation: “I can pay off my credit card debt.” Objection: “I can’t come up with that kind of money!” New affirmation: “I can find ways to earn all the money I need.”
Print your affirmations and place them where you’ll see them throughout the day. Repeat your affirmations aloud – with confidence – at least three times each day. Say your affirmation just before bed, so your subconscious mind has something to chew on while you sleep and repeat them again in the morning, when your refreshed mind is more receptive to new thoughts and ideas.
Or do what I do – I have a voice memo on my iPhone and I record my daily thoughts – I even publish them on my podcast -if you want to listen to Salty Vixen Podcast. I have 2 segments during the week: Random Ramblings with Salty Vixen – random news I read and I want to give my opinion | S- Spot with Salty Vixen, that is about sex and relationship advice (I read questions on my weekly Sex Column)
